Asbestos is a health hazard for anyone that may be exposed to it.  It is our responsibility to assist companies and homeowners in providing sound, qualified data that confirms the presence or absence of asbestos in their samples.  A&B Labs is certified to conduct asbestos testing and asbestos inspection projects. Working with many industrial companies, we commonly test insulation and building materials for asbestos.

A & B Environmental Services Inc. is now offering comprehensive Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) analysis to meet the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building Rating system for New Construction (LEED-NC) as an effective alternative for Flushing Out the building for two long weeks. We conduct baseline IAQ testing after construction ends and prior to occupancy, using analysis protocols consistent with USEpA, to demonstrate that the contaminant maximum concentrations listed below are not exceeded. 

The HDS Personal Monitor simplifies the monitoring of chemicals in the workplace. A breakthrough new technology based on helium diffusion yields a sampler that is small, light weight, cost-effective, universal, and defensible. Above all, the HDS Personal Monitor delivers highly reproducible results unaffected by factors that create errors in other diffusive samplers such as matrix concentrations, varying humidities, and fluctuating face velocities. An HDS sample is collected based upon the higher diffusion rate of helium relative to air, creating a vacuum that pulls air in as helium escapes. A surrogate recovery compound is added to every HDS Personal Monitor to substantiate the collection of a proper sample in the field as well as to prove effective recovery during laboratory analysis.
